حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي يَزِيدَ، عَنْ سِبَاعِ بْنِ ثَابِتٍ، عَنْ أُمِّ كُرْزٍ، قَالَتْ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " عَنِ الْغُلاَمِ شَاتَانِ مِثْلاَنِ وَعَنِ الْجَارِيَةِ شَاةٌ " . قَالَ أَبُو دَاوُدَ هَذَا هُوَ الْحَدِيثُ وَحَدِيثُ سُفْيَانَ وَهَمٌ .
